An interesting collection here, mostly stored outdoor, inside a fascinating location. The info panels here are the worst I've seen so far, I am still not 100% sure about proper identification of many pieces, I hope people here will double check them and provide feedback. Just like in Sofia and Bucha...
http://www.hat.com/currentL.html On this list we can see 3 new Italian infantry sets. 8221 WWI Italian Arditi* 8222 WWI Italian Heavy Weapons* 8223 WWI Italian Infantry* I wonder will they be early or late? Sadly the WWI Artillery Limber is still far, far from finishing
Please, help resolve a discussion: I believe I know the answer to this question (being "No"), but is anyone aware of a German FussArtillerie piece "schwere Feldhaubitze 96"? The only German gun with model 1896 that I know (or can find in Kosar et al) is the well known 7.7cm Feldk...
I bought an Emhar Mark V tank kit long ago, along with a Panzershop resin track kit. I decided that I'm too scared to try to build it. Anybody want it? (My plan is to tackle the Takom early St. Chamond kit-which suits the idea I have far better anyway.)
It's located in front of the local cemetery, surrounded by soldier's graves. It contains two very interesting artillery pieces, unfortunately they are both rusting away (together with an Italian Semovente da 75/18 from WW II): 75 mm mod. 1912. Italian Army first acquired 75 mm guns from Krupp (mod...

If you want that vehicle 1/72 in styrene or resin kit form from Minairons, you might want to support this. Minairons usually produce their kits in more than one scale. The thread shows images of the currently available Raventhorpe (metal) and Ready to Roll (resin) kits, too. Regards, Pat
In the GBM – Histore de Guerre, Blindés & Matériel, octobre-novembre-decembre 2013, n° 106, Paris, page 40, in the article Les Maxi-Chars first part, the author mentions Paul Malmassari a tank Little Willie II! It should be a connected by joints tank, consisting of several vehicles. I have...
At first this may seem to be an easy question. But I still wonder. The Paris Gun's carriage was a railway gun design. Its components were transported by rail, but it had to be emplaced and assembled before firing. The gun did not fire directly from rails, but rather was mounted on a turntable. Also...
Hello all, I would like to know if anyone here can help me with understanding the suspension on the Schneider CA series tanks. The rear part makes some sense to me, but the front section leaves me baffled. Where are the springs? what supports the forward section? I have watched as many videos as I can bu...
Bachmann have just announced their new models for WW1 era narrow gauge in OO9, http://www.bachmann.co.uk/details.php?id=188 So many new r2r models being released in this scale, almost tempted to build a WW1 themed layout in this scale.
I have the Tamiya Mk IV on the way from HLJ. Total cost is $75 Cdn including Shipping. So much for the fears that it would cost well over $100 plus. Not a bad price since I see new Trumpeter JS-4 is going for around the same price. dave
Am I right in thinking that Mk.IV supply tanks had a hatch in the cab roof? If so does anyone have a decent picture of one or the dimensions? This is the only picture I can find showing (sort of) the cab roof. Thanks a lot Bernie
One is the HäT kit, but with two new turrets / guns and decals for the Spanish Civil War, made by Minairons. The other is an all-new tooling by First To Fight. Regards, Pat

Hello All, I'm back & starting on my 1/2 scale A7V. I have been reading all my books, but I wanted you, the forum to give your opinions as to the operation of our beloved 20. Which one seems to have had the least down time? who was in more combat than the rest, which A7v was the most effective overall? T...
